Good upgrade for bikes with low budget suspension forks.
Installed on 29er single speed - existing suspension fork weighed 6 lbs! New fork is about 3 inches shorter and over 4 lb lighter than old fork. Disc brake bracket and headset adapted perfectly. Be aware that removing the old headset bearing race and star nut takes up most of the installation time. The bike feels much more nimble, fork is solid over ruts and jumps. No negative effects due to the 3 inch change in fork length and I actually like the lower stance better. Long steerer tube allowed makes for much more comfortable upright handlebar height. Plenty of clearance for 52 mm tires.

BOLANY rigid bike fork
The quality of this fork at it's price is outstanding. The welds are very good. Not perfect but certainly not sloppy with gaps. I used it to replace an entry level suspension fork on a mountain bike for an inexpensive gravel bike conversion. It came with a crown race and star nut and Instalation was easy with no surprises. The geometry is the same as the Suntour XCT I replaced. It's about 1.5" shorter at resting height but almost the same if you subtract the preload sag on the suspension fork. Rides and handles great. Looks great. I am very happy with it.

Great fork
Super happy with the fork. Fit a 29er and no problem with me at 220lb. Finish is really nice and not gaudy. Caliper mounted perfectly with minimal adjustment to stop any rubbing. I’d recommend them.

Fit seems good, no star nut or bottom plug included
The fork fits on my 29 inch wheel with a 2.5 inch tire. The brake disc clearance looks adequate. I haven’t installed it on the frame as there was no star nut included. I can update when I get a star nut ordered and put some miles on it. They included a water bottle which was a bonus.

Fits Co-op CTY 2.1
This is the exact size for and feels like a great upgrade to the REI Co-op CTY 2.1. No cutting and the brakes line up with minimal tinkering. We'll see how long it lasts -- it feels pretty solid but doesn't have very many miles yet.I was able to pry the crown race off the old fork and install it on the new fork with some PVC. I bought a star nut and tool for 8 bucks to install in the new fork.

Love it so far…
So far very happy with this fork. Swapped this out for the heavy suntour xtc supsension fork on my specialized rockhopper 29. I ended up getting the 27.5 fork mainly because I didnt want too much tire clearance. However, I think it does set the bb a bit low. Stack height seems fine. Will follow up after a few rides but so far this has turned a heavy mtb into a sweet gravel/road ride!

Awesome fork
Well it's good I'm 275 pounds and road this fork really hard though New England trails roots and rock it's solid.
